I'm an interdisciplinary product leader with a passion for designing great products that empower people and boost creativity, productivity, and well-being. I just completed a dual master's degree in Engineering Management (Integrated Design and Management) and Computer Science (EECS) at MIT in September 2024.

I combine 8+ years of experience in building tech products for positive societal impact, my background in human-centered design, AI/ML, and anthropology and psychology, to design and deliver products that push the boundaries of effective human-AI collaboration.

For me, a great product starts with empathy and a deep understanding of user needs. Once truly internalized, these insights become the foundation for innovative, and sometimes unconventional, ideas. By combining this understanding with a first-principles approach, we can unlock groundbreaking solutions that redefine what's possible.

A few things about how I work:

💡 I'm a generalist with a specialist's eye and a bias towards execution.

✨️ My superpower is finding a path from 0 to 1; being creatively resourceful along the way while being laser-focused on the end goal.

🪄 I thrive in environments wired for learning, collaboration, creativity, and ownership.

🧭 My life principle: "My life starts at the end of my comfort zone."
